|
diatomic molecule
|
a molecule containing only 2 atoms

lattice energy
|
the energy released when one mole of an ionic crystalline compund is formed from gaseous ions

|
malleability
|
the ability of a substance to be hammered or beaten into thin sheets
|
|
metallic bonding
|
chemical bonding that results from the attraction between metal atoms and the surrounding sea of electrons

|
|
polyatomic ion
|
a charged group of covalently bonded atoms
|
|
resonance
|
the bonding in molecules or ions that cannot be correctly represented by a single Lewis structure
|
|
single bond
|
a covalent bond produced by the sharing of one pair of electrons between two atoms
|
|
triple bond
|
a covalent bond produced by the sharing of threee pairs of electrons betwen two atoms
|
|
unshared pair or lone pair
|
a pair of electrons that is not involved in bonding and that belong exclusively to one atom
